[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I noticed the same thing. There are shows on tv today but not nearly as many as in past years.  One of our ds has spirit week this week and today's dress out of uniform is to dress patriotic and they are doing a memorial service at school.

As we do every year we will watch and discuss with our kids. The events were impactful in my dh and I's lives and we want to make sure our kids don't forget what happened. As others have said, we are so sad at the state of our nation and [b]miss the American spirit that was present in the days right after 9/11.[/b][/quote]

I mostly remember the hate directed towards Muslims and the useless wars that followed in the aftermath of 9/11.[/quote]

[b]Part of that was the Muslim community never spoke out immediately and forcefully condemning the actions that took place in 9/11. PR wise was a terrible decision. In addition, they should have volunteered or donated to 9-11 causes.

In addition some Muslim counties in actual school text books had 9/11 never happened. WTC was a hologram and names of people died were govt employees who were put in a sort of witness protection and issued new identities. There were tons of websites with this propaganda. [/quote]

This is nonsense. Why should they feel like they have anything to do with some loons who decided to hijack planes.

And can I add it's really rich to say this considering that today you can't even get half the country and a major politcal party to acknowledge that Jan.6 was anything other than some tourists taking a walk. And the acknowledgement of the officers whose lives were affect on that day, whether they died that day or suffer from PTSD and are still living with the pain. I'm waiting for their monument for saving the American democracy.

I distinctly recall footage all across the middle east of people cheering the twin towers coming down. While I do not agree with any type of retaliation against Muslims, I don’t exactly recall wanting to be lectures by anyone about being sensitive to their feelings at the time. [/quote]
